Well, I'm so up set I can't stand it. The seller told me he would hold the boat till I could drive down to get it. He gave me a price and I told him that was no problem and consider it sold. I offered to give him a deposit just to show him that I was serious and thought that was good enough to lock it down till I could make the drive. He told me i had nothing to worry about that he could hold it no problem and that he would even stop taking calls on it. So I called him today to see if it would be fine for my uncle who is local about getting the trailer fixed and he tells me it is gone. I had already arranged everything with him,talked to him five times and he said it was mine and I had two weeks to get it and no worries that he would not take anymore calls on it. I was trying to trust a man I thought, that gave me his word, that he would hold it for me. Luckily I wasn't halfway there from NC when he told me this. You would think someone that sent a deposit on a boat 600mi away would be able to trust a seller to hold it knowing the amount of trouble that I was going threw to make this purchase. I had a member from up here (csc) look at it for me and check it out mainly to verify the condition. The seller just sold it today for $200 more than what we agreed, so he clams anyhow. I would of been glad to pay a little more cash not loose it. He also told me he would not even be home till Monday and that i could not even get it till after then. He clames that the guy who bought it out from under me ended up paying his friend for the boat due to him not being present and his friend signed the title for him forging his signature. I don't know what to believe but know the seller screwed me. I am canceling my deposit check and will watch out better next time. You can't trust some peoples word no more. And if you aint a man of your word them your just a little boy.
